Off topic - Sports Time

While there's probably tons of good things to grasp in the glass and aluminum industry- my other passion.. sports really has taken center stage.

First.. baseball.. and the Detroit Tigers.

I live outside of Detroit and even though I grew up in Pittsburgh and will always be a Pirate fan, living the last 9 years here made in to a Tiger fan and obviously today I am pretty pumped.

The Tigers miracle series win over the Yankees was simply amazing. No one, and I mean NO ONE in Detroit thought these guys had a snowballs chance in beating the might Yankees.

The celebration afterward ws proof of that- it was one of those "oh my we did it" types of releases. And it was unreal.

Now onto Oakland, where Tiger fans can only hope that the boys don't come out flat against a very good A's team.

Meanwhile, probably lost in the whole TO debate yesterday was that the Steelers.. defending SuperBowl champs are in deep trouble after losing to the Chargers.

Basically the Steelers have to go 10 and 2 the rest of the way.. and thats a tall order.. plus those 2 losses can not come against the Ravens or really anyone in the AFC....

On the bright side if any team can string together victories, its Pittsburgh... but it just seems like Bill Cowher is not into it...

Anyway that's my off topic dump- next time in we'll get back to glass and aluminum and all of the adventures that come with it...

Hope everyone is well...
